Acroterion · CC BY-SA 4.0 · Beechcraft F33 Bonanza in flight; an example of the Bonanza family.The Bonanza appeared in 1947 as an all-metal aircraft with retractable landing gear. Its distinctive early V-tail became one of general aviation's best-known silhouettes. Conventional-tail versions also developed into a major branch of the family, including the longer Model 36.
Tail arrangement, fuselage and equipment distinguish the V35 and G36 branches. Simulator products range from conventional instruments to integrated glass cockpits.

The original Model 35 combined a low wing, retractable tricycle landing gear and a V-tail in a fast personal aircraft. Its two tail surfaces combined pitch and yaw functions through ruddervators. Later Bonanzas also used conventional tails: the Model 33 began as the Debonair, while the longer Model 36 developed the family into a six-seat aircraft. “Bonanza” therefore describes a family with distinct layouts and equipment.
First flight: December 22, 1945
Ovad bought his F33A as a relatively new private pilot looking for an aircraft that could take him places. He started instrument training before collecting it, then spent the following years using it for both work and exploration. Interviewed after more than 600 hours of ownership, he valued the comfortable cabin and the flexibility of its additional tip-tank fuel. He sometimes flew long days and preferred economical reduced-power cruising to extracting the last few knots.
The Bonanza carried Ovad and his fiancée Deb Mathein to places including Nova Scotia, Belize and Colorado. Shorter trips took clients sightseeing or delivered urgently needed electrical supplies for his business. His attachment went hand in hand with close attention to maintenance: he tracked oil-analysis results and engine data, and found being without the aircraft during a propeller replacement particularly difficult. His range and operating experience concern his specifically equipped F33A.
Cox ferried Barry Andrews' A36TC from California to Singapore after its owner accepted an overseas posting. Fuel shortages at intended Pacific stops forced a longer route through island destinations and northern Australia. The aircraft had additional ferry tanks, substantially more fuel than a standard Bonanza and a recently overhauled engine. Cox remembers the long ocean legs as hours of repetitive flying punctuated by the relief of seeing the next island.
Andrews joined him in Darwin for the final leg. With two people, luggage, ferry fuel and tropical heat, the overloaded aircraft climbed slowly, making the departure a very different experience from an ordinary lightly loaded demonstration. Later, Cox used the Stormscope while working around thunderstorms toward Singapore. After roughly 65 flying hours over a week, he delivered the Bonanza at Seletar. His account conveys both confidence in the aeroplane and his continuing awareness of the water beneath it; the special ferry configuration is essential context for the distances and handling he describes.
Maeda completed a six-week circumnavigation in June 2021 in Lucy, his 1963 P-model V-tail Bonanza. Speaking to David Tulis after returning to Washington, he recalled a journey complicated by fuel availability, altered routes, paperwork and pandemic restrictions. Weather added its own challenges, from desert dust to Russian fog and an encounter with icing. He also remembers the loneliness of parts of the trip and the help of a support network following his progress.
One particularly vivid memory was flying over Greenland alongside mentor Adrian Eichhorn in another Bonanza. Clear skies revealed an extraordinary landscape, but looking down at the glaciers also made Maeda intensely conscious of depending on a single engine. He found himself talking encouragingly to Lucy. Elsewhere, welcoming airport staff and strangers helped keep the mission moving. His account ends with a return to his family and a renewed appreciation for the people along the route, giving the long-distance Bonanza journey a distinctly personal scale.

This profile selects PAE / SimCoders Bonanza A36 for X-Plane 12.
Spring resistance builds with the selected airspeed response. A separate aerodynamic term adds speed-dependent control load.
Valid trim provides the configured pressure relief. Autopilot following is off.
Later A36/G36 Bonanzas use adjustable aileron trim tabs and an electromechanical retractable-gear system. The manufacturer's control-system material should not be replaced by an earlier throw-over-column trimmer description. Black Square separates normally aspirated, turbonormalized and turbine configurations; its Professional manual names KFC150 equipment but also uses Century IV wording in its FAQ. That unresolved label conflict does not establish an autopilot interface.
PAE/REP A36 offers analog/G5/G500 with S-TEC55X/GFC500 options and separately licensed displays. Manufacturer/checklist evidence supports electromechanical gear despite conflicting product prose.
The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.
A escala final de saída aplicada a tudo que o modelo produz, antes do teto do dispositivo.
Mais: tudo (mola, cargas, efeitos) fica mais forte junto.
Menos: tudo amacia junto.
Por que aqui: Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.
A força base de centragem que puxa o manche de volta ao centro. Todas as outras forças se empilham sobre ela. Baixa demais e o manche parece frouxo em voo normal; alta demais e ele briga com sua mão e mascara os sinais menores por cima.
Mais: uma centragem mais firme que resiste mais à mão.
Menos: um manche mais mole que depende só da carga aerodinâmica.
Por que aqui: The selected reversible-control response accompanies the named Bonanza; engine conversion and panel options do not establish a new force law by themselves. The baseline spring is 0.7. Its low-speed blend reaches baseline strength at 75 KIAS.
Operating ManualBeechcraft-authored G36 POH archived copyABS authored Bonanza controls/trim serial applicabilityUma pequena zona neutra ao redor do centro onde a mola fica quieta, para que movimentos mínimos em repouso não trepidem. Mais larga é mais calma porém mais solta; mais estreita é mais precisa mas pode tremer no centro.
Mais: um centro mais calmo porém mais solto, com mais folga.
Menos: um centro mais apertado que pode tremer em repouso.
Por que aqui: Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.
Uma escala mestra sobre as duas cargas sustentadas de eixo, aplicada antes do balanço independente delas. Os perfis normalmente a deixam quieta e ajustam as duas cargas de eixo.
Mais: os dois eixos carregam mais forte.
Menos: os dois eixos aliviam juntos.
Por que aqui: The aerodynamic-load gain is 0.65 with an indicated-speed reference of 150 KIAS. This supplies speed-dependent loading alongside the spring.
Ativa a janela de engate da mola em baixa velocidade (nós de início/pleno acima). Desligado, a mola é constante em todas as velocidades.
Por que aqui: Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.
Quanto da mola sobrevive parado, antes que a velocidade possa gerar força aerodinâmica. Um piso alto mantém o manche estacionado firme; um piso baixo dá a sensação solta, de cabos com folga, de um avião leve estacionado.
Mais: um manche mais firme estacionado e no táxi.
Menos: um manche mole estacionado que só desperta com velocidade.
Por que aqui: Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.
A velocidade em que a mola começa a subir do piso de baixa velocidade rumo à força plena: os comandos "ganhando vida" na corrida de decolagem.
Por que aqui: Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.
A velocidade em que a mola atinge força plena. Entre o início e este ponto, a centragem endurece progressivamente à medida que o fluxo de ar cresce sobre os comandos.
Por que aqui: Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.
A velocidade indicada em que a carga aerodinâmica atinge seu nível pleno de projeto. Ela ancora toda a curva de carga à faixa real de velocidades do avião: um 172 carrega por volta de 110 nós, um jato bem depois.
Mais: as cargas chegam mais tarde; o manche fica leve até mais velocidade.
Menos: as cargas chegam antes e o cruzeiro pesa mais.
Por que aqui: Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.
Quanto a própria centragem endurece com a velocidade, além das cargas de deflexão. Zero mantém a sensação de centro constante; mais faz o manche centrar mais duro em cruzeiro e mais solto no circuito.
Mais: um centro que endurece nitidamente com a velocidade.
Menos: uma sensação de centro constante em qualquer velocidade.
Por que aqui: The high-speed spring-stiffening gain is 0.15. It strengthens the permitted spring response above 75 KIAS, with the squared-speed ratio capped at 5.
O limite superior do endurecimento de centro pela velocidade, para que voos muito rápidos não tensionem a mola sem freio.
Mais: mais endurecimento total permitido em alta velocidade.
Menos: o endurecimento corta antes.
Por que aqui: Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.
A carga sustentada de rolagem da deflexão dos ailerons e da velocidade, balanceada independentemente da arfagem. Junto com a carga do profundor define a razão de harmonia de comandos de que falam as resenhas.
Mais: esforços de rolagem mais pesados.
Menos: ailerons mais leves e vivos.
Por que aqui: Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 0.78 and 1, respectively. They set the aerodynamic axis balance. No custom spring-travel curve is enabled.
A carga sustentada de arfagem da deflexão do profundor e da velocidade, balanceada independentemente da rolagem. É a alavanca principal por trás do peso de arfagem de um tipo. Não toca aileron, mola, compensador nem forças de buffet.
Mais: esforços sustentados de arfagem mais pesados em velocidade.
Menos: um profundor mais leve, com menos músculo para segurar.
Por que aqui: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.
Um teto sobre cada força estável de arfagem ou rolagem antes de chegar ao dispositivo, protegendo contra pancadas ou saturação do hardware em manobras fortes.
Mais: picos de força estável mais altos antes do corte.
Menos: um teto mais suave; manobras duras achatam antes.
Por que aqui: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.
Com que força o compensador de profundor alivia o esforço de arfagem mantido e desloca onde o manche assenta. Em 100 %, um avião bem compensado não precisa de pressão mantida: o fluxo de trabalho de compensar-a-carga do voo real.
Mais: o compensador tira mais esforço mantido; em 100 %, todo compensado o anula.
Menos: você segue segurando esforço mesmo compensado.
Por que aqui: Elevator trim and flight-adjustable aileron trim support separate pitch and roll relief. The profile's authorities remain selected approximations. Pitch authority 0.25 provides load relief and permitted centre movement; roll authority is 0.1.
Operating ManualBeechcraft-authored G36 POH archived copyABS authored Bonanza controls/trim serial applicabilityO mesmo alívio para o compensador de rolagem. A maioria dos tipos de aviação geral não tem compensador de aileron real, então isto fica em zero; tipos com compensador de rolagem recebem um valor correspondente.
Mais: o compensador de rolagem tira mais esforço mantido.
Menos: o compensador de rolagem faz menos.
Por que aqui: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.
Vibração de rolagem no solo pela velocidade das rodas e tipo de superfície: asfalto, grama ou cascalho sob o trem.
Mais: uma textura de superfície mais forte no manche.
Menos: um táxi mais liso.
Por que aqui: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.
Solavancos curtos e discretos de juntas de dilatação, sulcos e superfície irregular, pontuando o ronco contínuo.
Mais: solavancos mais nítidos de juntas e sulcos.
Menos: detalhes de solo mais suaves.
Por que aqui: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.
Sacudida da célula ao se aproximar do estol e enquanto o aviso soa: quão alto esta asa anuncia que está infeliz. Tipos de quebra seca recebem buffet modesto e deixam a buzina levar o aviso.
Mais: um tremor pré-estol mais forte.
Menos: uma asa mais discreta; a buzina leva o aviso.
Por que aqui: Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.
Buffet transônico ao se aproximar do limite de Mach. Significativo para jatos perto de MMO, zero para pistões e turboélices que nunca chegam lá.
Mais: um buffet transônico mais forte perto do limite de Mach.
Menos: um voo mais liso em Mach alto.
Por que aqui: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.
Vibração de baixa frequência da célula com flapes estendidos no fluxo, na janela de velocidade em que eles realmente trabalham o ar.
Mais: um voo mais áspero com flapes trabalhando.
Menos: flapes de aproximação mais suaves.
Por que aqui: Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.
Tamborilar da célula pelo trem retrátil pendurado na corrente de ar. Zero para tipos de trem fixo, onde a célula nunca muda de forma.
Mais: mais tamborilar com o trem embaixo.
Menos: um voo com trem embaixo mais limpo.
Por que aqui: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.
O zumbido dedicado do stick shaker de estol, disparado pelo próprio sistema de aviso do avião. Só tipos com shaker real recebem valor; o resto confia no buffet aerodinâmico e na buzina.
Mais: um shaker mais duro.
Menos: um shaker mais discreto.
Por que aqui: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.
O golpe único quando as rodas tocam a pista, escalado pela razão de descida: um pouso macio sussurra, uma chegada firme bate.
Mais: um golpe mais duro no toque.
Menos: chegadas mais suaves.
Por que aqui: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.
Vibração na corrida enquanto o reverso ou as hélices em beta trabalham. Zero para tipos sem reverso.
Mais: uma corrida mais áspera sob reverso.
Menos: um reverso mais discreto.
Por que aqui: Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.
Vibração contínua do grupo motopropulsor seguindo a rotação entre marcha lenta e potência máxima, o lembrete sempre presente de que algo queima combustível lá na frente.
Mais: mais motor no manche.
Menos: um motor mais discreto.
Por que aqui: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.
Vibração contínua apenas enquanto o simulador informa as superfícies de flape realmente em movimento. Segue o movimento e as falhas reais do atuador, não um cronômetro estimado.
Mais: mais vibração com os flapes em movimento.
Menos: cursos de flape mais discretos.
Por que aqui: Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.
Quanto os comandos do piloto automático podem mover fisicamente o manche. Mantido minúsculo no MSFS, onde um eixo movido pode ser lido de volta como entrada do piloto; zero desativa o seguimento por completo.
Mais: o piloto automático move seu manche visivelmente mais.
Menos: um seguimento quase imperceptível.
Por que aqui: Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.

Por que aqui: Enables aerodynamic cues; each still needs nonzero strength and its simulator conditions.
Where this effect reaches full strength (or has fully faded, for washouts).
Mais: a more gradual build to a later peak.
Menos: a quicker build.
Por que aqui: Sets the final flap index for detent normalization. UP plus three detents uses maximum index3.
